    Now don't get excited,
    Don't be misled,
    These aren't for you,
    But for the dishes instead.

    Just pull on the bows,
    Take out the stitches,
    You've gained 2 dishcloths,
    But you've lost your britches!


    You probably all seen these but aren't they cute.

    That is cute! Did you make those? I would love to know how. I smell a tutorial coming (if we can talk you into it!)

    My mother made these for me years ago.
    But I searched online and found a link that shows how they are made

    I have also seen them done to look like a baby bonnet and little sweater. My mom used to make them too.
